Aeonium ‘Mardi Gras’ is a hybrid, so it doesn’t have a single “native” region. However, it’s parentage traces back to the Canary Islands. Therefore, the *species* from which it was bred originate from the Canary Islands.

Here’s the breakdown:

* **Aeoniums are native to the Canary Islands, Madeira, Cape Verde, and Morocco.** These volcanic islands off the coast of Africa are known for their unique succulent flora.
* **’Mardi Gras’ is a hybrid cultivar.** This means it’s a cross between two or more *Aeonium* species, intentionally bred for its desirable characteristics (in this case, vibrant coloration).
* **The parentage of specific cultivars can vary.** Without knowing the exact species used to create ‘Mardi Gras’, we can’t pinpoint its precise origin.

**In conclusion:** While Aeonium ‘Mardi Gras’ itself isn’t “native” anywhere, its genetic heritage lies primarily in the **Canary Islands**. The parent species likely come from that region.
